About this study

Official title: Phase II Trial Evaluating Low-dose Deferasirox (DFX) in Patients With Low-risk (MDS) Myelodysplastic Syndrome Resistant or Relapsing After ESA Agents (LODEFI)

Patients with low-risk MDS verifying the eligibility criteria may be included in the study.

Read the detailed description

Patients will receive the number of DFX tablets (Exjade, cp film-coated, 90mg or 360mg), in relation to their body weight to be closer to 3.5mg / kg / d for 12 months.

At one month and six months of treatment, the residual plasma levels of DFX will be measured in patients (sent to the Bordeaux laboratory of Biochemistry, Pr Molimard) to allow the dosage to be adjusted (plasma objective of 3 μM).

At inclusion (J1) and at 6 months of treatment, a dosage of NTBI and hepcidine will be performed.

If patients become transfusion-dependent (≥) 2 packed red cells (RBP) per 2-month period evaluated over 6 months, they will stop low-dose DFX and go out of protocol to receive DFX at 20mg / kg (according to EMEA authorization) for iron chelation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Deferasirox in people with Myelodysplasia, run by University Hospital, Grenoble at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of patients without transfusion-dependence at 12 months. (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Dec 2024.
